and 4 hours per response for the Job Training Reporting Form. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements which have subsequently changed; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information;
and transmit or otherwise disclose the
information.

The ICR provides a detailed explanation of the Agency’s estimate, which is only briefly summarized here:

Estimated total number of potential respondents: 1007.

Frequency of response: Bi-annual for subtitle C recipients; quarterly for subtitle A recipients.

Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent: 20.

Estimated total annual burden hours: 3,167 hours.

Estimated total annual costs: $308,911. This includes an estimated burden cost of $308,911 and an estimated cost of $0 for capital
investment or maintenance and operational costs.

Are there changes in the estimates from the last approval?

There is a decrease of one hour in the total estimated respondent burden compared with that identified in the ICR currently approved by OMB. This decrease reflects EPA’s updating of
burden estimates for this collection
based on an increase in number of experienced recipients familiar with reporting requirements, a lowered number of responses based on previous data submission, and improvements in the ACRES reporting database.

What is the next step in the process for
this ICR?

EPA will consider the comments
received and amend the ICR as appropriate. The final ICR package will
then be submitted to OMB for review and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.12. At that time, EPA will issue
another Federal Register notice pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to
announce the submission of the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to submit additional comments to OMB. If you have any questions about this ICR or the approval process, please contact the technical person listed under **FOR**

This settlement agreement is the result of an investigation by the Special Litigation and Projects Division (SLPD)
in the Office of Civil Enforcement of AT&T Wireless (AWS) for potential EPCRA Section 311 and 312 reporting violations, CWA violations related to Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan requirements and CAA violations related to the permitting of backup generators under State Implementation Plan (SIP) rules. On October 26, 2004, AWS was purchased by Cingular Wireless PCS, LLC (CW). CW was subsequently renamed New Cingular Wireless PCS, LLC (NCW). The scope of this settlement agreement is limited to legacy AWS-owned facilities that were subject to SLPD’s investigation from

2001 to 2003.

Pursuant to the settlement agreement, NCW will pay a civil penalty of $750,000, will expend an additional $625,000 for Supplemental Environmental Projects and will conduct CAA and SPCC compliance audits at legacy AWS sites. EPA and NCW negotiated an administrative Consent Agreement in accordance with the Consolidated Rules of Practice, 40 CFR 22.13(b) (In Re: New Cingular Wireless PCS, LLC, Docket Nos. CWA– HQ–2009–8001, CAA–HQ–2009–8001, EPCRA–HQ–2009–8001). This Consent Agreement is subject to public notice
and comment under CWA section 311(b)(6)(C), 33 U.S.C. 1321(b)(6)(C).

CWA

NCW violated CWA section 311(j) and 40 CFR Part 112, because it inadequately prepared and/or failed to prepare and implement SPCC plans for
the 14 facilities listed below between 2001 and 2008. As authorized by CWA section 311(b)(6), 33 U.S.C. 1321(b)(6), EPA has assessed a civil penalty for
these violations.

Under CWA section 311(b)(6)(A), 33 U.S.C. 1321(b)(6)(A), based on the time period in which the violations occurred, any owner, operator, or person in charge of a vessel, onshore facility, or offshore facility from which oil is discharged in violation of CWA section 311(b)(3), 33 U.S.C. 1321(b)(3), or who fails or refuses to comply with any regulations that
have been issued under CWA section 311(j), 33 U.S.C. 1321(j), may be assessed an administrative civil penalty of up to $157,500 by EPA for violations occurring after March 15, 2004, and up to $137,500 for violations up to and including that date. Class II proceedings under CWA section 311(b)(6) are
conducted in accordance with 40 CFR

Part 22.

The procedures by which the public may comment on a proposed Class II penalty order, or participate in a CWA Class II penalty proceeding, are set forth
in 40 CFR 22.45. The deadline for submitting public comment on this proposed final order is October 19,
2012. All comments will be transferred to the Environmental Appeals Board (‘‘EAB’’) of EPA for consideration. The powers and duties of the EAB are outlined in 40 CFR 22.4(a).

Pursuant to CWA section 311(b)(6)(C), 33 U.S.C. 1321(b)(6)(C), EPA will not issue an order in this proceeding prior to the close of the public comment period.

EPCRA

NCW also violated EPCRA section 311, 42 U.S.C. 11021, and the regulations found at 40 CFR 370.21,
when it failed to submit a Material Safety Data Sheet (‘‘MSDS’’) for a hazardous chemical(s) or, in the alternative, a list of such chemicals, at 51 facilities for varying lengths of time between 2001 and 2003. EPA, as authorized by EPCRA section 325, 42 U.S.C. 11045, has assessed a civil penalty for these violations. NCW also violated EPCRA section 312, 42 U.S.C. 11022, and the regulations found at 40 CFR Part 370.25, when it failed to prepare and submit emergency and chemical inventory forms to the LEPC, the SERC and/or the fire department with jurisdiction over

314 facilities listed in Attachment A for varying lengths of time between 2001 and 2003. EPA, as authorized by EPCRA section 325, 42 U.S.C. 11045, has assessed a civil penalty for these

violations. Attachment A to the proposed CAFO lists the 325 EPCRA

sites in violation of EPCRA sections 311

and 312.

Under EPCRA section 325, 42 U.S.C. 11045, the Administrator may issue an administrative order assessing a civil penalty against any person who has violated applicable emergency planning or right to know requirements, or any other requirement of EPCRA. Proceedings under EPCRA section 325


### 58131 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 182 / Wednesday, September 19, 2012 / Notices

are conducted in accordance with 40 CFR part 22.

CAA

NCW also violated regulations promulgated pursuant to the California SIP involving the two facilities described in the paragraphs below at varying lengths of time between 2001 and 2007. Section 110(a)(1) of the CAA, 42 U.S.C. 7410(a)(2), requires states to submit implementation plans to implement, maintain, and enforce ambient air quality standards. Section 110(a)(2)(C) of the CAA, 42 U.S.C. 7410(a)(2), requires states to include in their implementation plans regulation of
the modification and construction of any stationary source covered by the plan. The California State Implementation Plan (SIP) includes requirements from local governments. The California SIP, including the requirements specific to the local governments, was approved by EPA under section 110 of the Act, 42 U.S.C.

7410.

The California air quality control districts’ rules for the jurisdictions set forth below include regulations that require construction and/or operating permits for certain stationary sources of air pollution. As detailed below, each of these provisions was incorporated into
the California SIP and is therefore federally enforceable.

In the State of California, NCW operates diesel fuel-powered electric generators that are stationary sources within the meaning of CAA section 302(z), 42 U.S.C. 7602(z).

A. Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD)—The California SIP includes a provision, Regulation 2, Rule 1 BAAQMD Rules, stating that any person installing any equipment, the use of which may cause the issuance of air contaminants, must first obtain
authorization for such construction and subsequent operation. This provision was federally approved and became federally enforceable on January 26, 1999 (64 Fed. Reg. 3850). NCW owns or operates a facility (2 miles off Lynch Road, Suisun, CA) in the BAAQMD thatinstalled a pollution-emitting dieselpowered electric generating unit
without written authorization from BAAQMD in violation of Regulation 2,
Rule 1.

B. San Joaquin Valley Unified Air
Pollution Control District (SJVUAPCD)—The California SIP includes a provision, section 3.0 in SJVUAPCD Rule 2010, stating that any person installing any equipment, the use of which may cause the issuance of air contaminants, must first obtain
authorization for such construction and subsequent operation. This provision was federally approved and became federally enforceable on July 23, 1999 (64 Fed. Reg. 39,920). NCW owns or operates a facility (6855 West Eight Mile Road, Stockton, CA) in the SJVUAPCD that installed two pollution-emitting diesel-powered electric generating units
without written authorization from SJVUAPCD in violation of Rule 2010.

NCW violated regulations promulgated pursuant to the California SIP involving the two facilities described in the paragraphs above and is therefore subject to federal enforcement under CAA section 110(a). EPA, as authorized by CAA section 113(d), 42 U.S.C. 7413(d), has assessed a civil penalty for these violations. Under CAA section 113(d), 42 U.S.C. 7413(d), the Administrator may issue an administrative order assessing a civil penalty against any person who has violated an applicable requirement of the CAA, including any rule, order, waiver, permit or plan. Proceedings under CAA section 113(d) are
conducted in accordance with 40 CFR

Part 22.

EPA will not issue an order in this proceeding prior to the close of the public comment period.

**AGENCY :**  Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

**ACTION :**  Notice.

**SUMMARY :**  This notice announces EPA’s approval of the State of Mississippi’s request to revise/modify certain of its EPA-authorized programs to allow electronic reporting.

**DATES :**  EPA’s approval is effective on September 19, 2012.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  On October 13, 2005, the final Cross-Media Electronic Reporting Rule (CROMERR) was published in the Federal Register (70 FR 59848) and codified as part 3 of
title 40 of the CFR. CROMERR establishes electronic reporting as an acceptable regulatory alternative to paper reporting and establishes requirements to assure that electronic documents are as legally dependable as their paper counterparts. Subpart D of CROMERR requires that state, tribal or local government agencies that receive, or wish to begin receiving, electronic reports under their EPA-authorized programs must apply to EPA for a
revision or modification of those programs and obtain EPA approval. Subpart D provides standards for such approvals based on consideration of the electronic document receiving systems that the state, tribal, or local government will use to implement the electronic reporting. Additionally, § 3.1000(b) through (e) of 40 CFR part 3, subpart D provides special procedures for program
revisions and modifications to allow electronic reporting, to be used at the option of the State, Tribe or local government in place of proceduresavailable under existing programspecific authorization regulations. An application submitted under the subpart D procedures must show that the state, tribe or local government has sufficient legal authority to implement the electronic reporting components of the programs covered by the application
and will use electronic document receiving systems that meet the applicable subpart D requirements.

On January 14, 2010, the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) submitted an application entitled ‘‘Regulatory Services Portal/ Hazardous Waste Biennial Reporting’’
for revisions/modifications of its EPAauthorized programs under title 40 CFR. EPA reviewed MDEQ’s request to revise/modify its EPA-authorized programs and, based on this review, EPA determined that the application met the standards for approval of authorized program revisions/ modifications set out in 40 CFR part 3, subpart D. In accordance with 40 CFR 3.1000(d), this notice of EPA’s decision to approve Mississippi’s request torevise/modify its following EPAauthorized programs to allow electronic
